French Toast

French Toast

French toast is a delicious breakfast or brunch dish that's so easy to make. The breads you can use are endless but I love Challah  bread.  Challah bread works great because it absorbs the egg mixture very well and gives a nice texture to the dish.  When it comes to toppings you can get as creative as you'd like.   My personal favorites are whip cream, all kinds of berries, sliced almonds, powdered sugar and maple syrup.  

French toast can easily be made in big batches and be frozen in individual slices. Placing wax paper between each slice makes the thawing process much easier.  You simply can heat in the microwave, oven or the toaster.
